Restoring a Tri-Five Chevy is a project that is on almost any
classic car enthusiast's bucket list. But, along with a complete
rebuild comes a laundry list of headaches, unwelcomed surprises,
extra costs, impossible-to-find parts, and on and on. So, when a
car like this gorgeous 1955 Chevrolet Bel Air Supercharged Restomod
comes along, shimmering in its lovely Neptune Green and white
two-tone paint, fully redone and ready to go, it should be nearly
impossible to pass up. Built on a New Creations chassis, which is a
modified tri-five undercarriage equipped with a custom suspension
and specific motor and transmission mounts to accept modern
drivetrains, this classic Chevy rides on 18-inch Billet Specialties
wheels shod in 245/45R-18 front and larger 275/45R-18 rear
low-profile BFG rubber.
Inside, we find a fully custom beige leather interior decked out
with power windows and locks, a modern Kenwood AM/FM/CD/Bluetooth
stereo system, billet dashboard insert and a trick custom
white-faced gauge cluster nestled in nicely behind the six-spoke
padded and power-assisted steering wheel.
Under the hood of this racy restomod we find a monstrous Magnuson
supercharged 5.7-liter LS1 V-8 that was pulled, re-sealed, and
rebuilt with cathedral ported heads, PRC dual-value
springs/retainers, a Texas Speed cam and pushrods, LS7 lifters, and
an Innovators West 8-rib pulley sporting a ten percent overdrive.
That massive power is then routed through a 4L60E four-speed
automatic transmission before heading out to the 3.23:1 geared
Corvette rear end. A MagnaFlow exhaust system announces this car's
presence and lets anyone within earshot know it is more than your
average '55.

independent suspension based on the C4 Corvette. Four-wheel power
disc brakes that are slotted and cross-drilled rein in power as
fast as that supercharged V-8 can make it, giving you peace of mind
knowing all is under control whenever necessary. The current owner
also added an electric E-brake, a new alternator, an AC compressor,
and a new serpentine belt. So, if you've always wanted a built
classic Tri-Five Chevy, but without all the headaches and wasted
time, look no further because this is the car you've been waiting
for. Call today!
